fel-pro 1406 or percy's aluminum header gaskets?
I'm going to be installing as&m headers. Just curious what are the best gaskets & bolts to use. Did a search, but not much input on the percy's gaskets. Thanks

I was recommended percys by a guy who had multiple sets of headers, but i cheaped out and just went with copper ones.

I am using the Fel-pro 1406 and is working really well. I have used many other ones, but not the Percy.

I wonder if the aluminum or copper gaskets have any adverse effects on the header flange like warping? Then again the paper gasket can't retard heat that much.
